FAIRFIELD — A man exposed himself to a woman and her young daughter as they were leaving a Fairfield gas station on Thursday, police said.

He fled in a tan sport utility vehicle containing the letters JWD on its New Jersey license plates. The vehicle had off-road style tires and its rear window displayed a stick figure decal, police said.
